The technical staff of Al-Ahli, led by German Matthias Jaissle, announced the exclusion of the duo Galeno and Demiral from the match against Al-Wahda UAE, scheduled for tomorrow as part of the seventh round of the Asian Champions League for the elite.

Galeno sustained a minor injury that prevented him from participating in the main training session, while Demiral continues to follow his rehabilitation program after partially recovering, which kept both of them from joining the team's trip to Abu Dhabi in preparation for the match.

The decision by Yaislah is part of a strategic plan to address absences, with the Brazilian Ricardo Matias, a newly joined striker from the reserve team during the winter transfer window, accompanying the delegation to compensate for the shortage.

Al-Ahly will play the match against Al-Wehda despite significant absences, even though the team has already secured qualification to the next round since the previous round, having collected 13 points from 4 wins, a draw, and a loss.

Al-Ahly holds the third position in the Western group standings of the AFC Champions League for the elite and is preparing to face Al-Wahda, hoping to strengthen its position before moving on to the knockout stages.

The team continues its preparatory training before the match, focusing on physically and technically preparing the available players to compensate for the absence of key players and secure victory in the important game.
